Thu, 12 Jan 2012 21:38:16 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=63828#comment-29739Oh and just because Backstrom is injured at the moment, doesn’t mean he shouldn’t be given the honor of being named an Allstar. He should be allowed to decline due to his head injury.

Thu, 12 Jan 2012 21:36:31 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=63828#comment-29736Kane’s doing alright, but I’m pretty annoyed a hit-and-miss ‘Hawk (by his own usually very high standards, at least) got in over any other Blues. A more offensive D-man like Shattenkirk would look good in the All-Star game. Lord knows he’s more suited to the “fuck defense” sytyle than Dan Girardi. And speaking of Rangers, Del Zotto and McDonagh seem to fit the mold better too. Girardi’s just a weird call.

Also: Bergeron over Ovi, Selanne over Perry, Hartnell’s easy enough to drop given the number of Flyers already in there and lastly, FUCKING BYFUGLIEN OVER EVANDER KANE? Look, I GET that he’s basically a forward playing D, but STILL. Kane’s having a career season. He’s earned his place.

Thu, 12 Jan 2012 21:32:49 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=63828#comment-29733@artieart- Hartnell is on a career year pace for goals, assists and points. He’s dropped his penalty minute totals and plays on the teams top line. And by the way, Ovie isn’t exactly “Mr. Clean”, he’s known to go knee to knee and take his fair share of cheap shots, ask Tim Gleeson, Sergei Gonchar and Brian Campbell!!! Also absent from the list above is Ovie’s team mate and the teams leading scorer Nicklas Backstrom! If anything he deserves it far more then Ovechkin. Ovechkin has mailed it in this season and neither Backstrom or Hartnell have, both have played with more heart and fire then Alexander Ovechkin. But hey, I guess the league needs to sell tickets so they go with the cement head over 2 who’ve earned the right.

Thu, 12 Jan 2012 20:40:01 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=63828#comment-29707Overstated a bit, but look at the roster.

As an older fan I actually don’t care who goes to the All Star game, I just would like the team to win another cup.

The Rangers rookies got overlooked, and I’m hoping it strengthens them as a unit…

Thu, 12 Jan 2012 19:59:25 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=63828#comment-29686Sharp is injured, not expected back. Eberle has had his bouts with the injury bug also. Selanne declined the invite.

So your only real complaint is Dan Boyle… and pekka rinne (but instead of Pekka, what about Mike Smith?)

Thu, 12 Jan 2012 19:56:10 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=63828#comment-29680Product of a former top draft pick having a breakout season is a better story than Bergeron’s big season thus far.

In Seguin’s defense, he’s got a better +/- than Bergeron, and Bergie is getting all of the Selke talk because of faceoffs…

Thu, 12 Jan 2012 19:54:35 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=63828#comment-29677Agree with Bergey over the kid. May be most underrated player in league.
